You can do exercises such as mentioned above, and twists, torso rotations, etc, but these will mainly be working your obliques and intercostals, not burning fat(other than more overall calories burnt in your workout). -------------- If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything.... bb1fit@freetrainers.com

YES IT DOESNT MAKES YOU LOSE FAT, but it will help you lose those unwanted wheels. plus, the more muscle you have, the more fat you burn. Dont you think?

While it is true that more lean mass increases metabolic rate, if you do not change your diet, you will still not lose any of the fat you have. BA is absolutely right, you will look thicker. -------------- If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything.... bb1fit@freetrainers.com
